Recommended background knowledge

Students will need a basic knowledge of ARC-GIS software (ESRI software provided by the University). If this has not been provided by one of the following subjects, then students will need to complete a set of online training modules before the class begins.  These are not onerous, and will provide a basic working knowledge of ARC-GIS. Subjects that will provide relevant background knowledge include:

  • GEOG10002 Landscape Information Systems
  • GEOM20013 Applications of GIS (Semester 1)
  • ENVS10006 Mapping Environments
  • GEOM30012 Integrated Spatial Systems (can be taken concurrently)

Note that this subject involves some numerical analysis, and some use of statistics (within the software packages), so it is recommended that students have some basic competency in mathematics. 

Inherent requirements (core participation requirements)

The University of Melbourne is committed to providing students with reasonable adjustments to assessment and participation under the Disability Standards for Education (2005), and the Assessment and Results Policy (MPF1326). Students are expected to meet the core participation requirements for their course. These can be viewed under Entry and Participation Requirements for the course outlines in the Handbook.
